33 days until the election! Three ways you can help...

Well, there are just thirty-three days until November 4, Election Day!

Want to help out? There are three major activities that APIAVote-Michigan really needs your help with:

1. Voter registration! Michigan's voter registration deadline is Monday, October 6! Register to vote by clicking the "register to vote" icon in the upper right hand corner of the page. Also, check out some opportunities to help register people to vote.

2. Get Out The Vote (GOTV) phone banks! APIAVote needs your help in Wayne/Washtenaw, Oakland, and Macomb Counties, to call Asian American voters to remind them to vote on November 4! Our first big phonebank will take place on Saturday, October 11, 1:30 - 4:30 pm, Philippine American Community Center of Michigan, 17356 Northland Park Ct, Southfield. Come have pie, cider, and doughnuts!! Sign up to help out and check out the other volunteer opportunities here.

3. Election Day volunteering! Help to defend Asian & Arab American voting rights, by volunteering for three hours on Election Day, November 4, for the exit polling/election protection project we are working on with the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund. Sign up to help out!

Hope to see you soon! :-)
